Sharp's PN-80SC5 is the first of the industry-leading BIG PAD interactive displays to have “optical bonding” as standard for eye-catching image brilliance and a more immediate touch response. The incredibly positive touch experience means that users are more confident and poised when teaching, presenting, or leading a discussion.

In the classroom, lecture theatre or office training rooms any teacher will appreciate the direct access to Freeze-Frame and Blackout buttons for even more control and security. The Freeze-Frame button allows content to be frozen on screen, whilst the presenter continues using a connected device without disturbing the audience. In addition, the Blackout button blacks out the screen and instantly focuses the audience or group attention back on the presenter. In an office meeting room or the boardroom, any collaborative work group will immediately benefit from higher attention level and a more focused approach to discussion and decision making.

The acclaimed 10-point Infrared (IR) touch from Sharp gives an amazingly fast and response touch experience, that generates user confidence, and ensures the BIG PAD is a natural tool and asset to the collaborative or training session - a new level of creative, productive and decisive effectiveness is achieved.

Sharp’s application software for enhanced team communication and the capturing of all creative expression means that industry-leading decisive and productive collaboration is achieved. The acclaimed, smart and intuitive Pen software, which runs on an external PC, opens up new ways for brainstorming, sharing ideas and finalising decisions. The latest version makes the most of the new powerful Windows driver, Pen Digitizer, which ensures automatic, intuitive and intelligent switching between Pen annotation and Finger control. It’s so good you won’t even notice the switch!

Using the BIG PAD can be made even better through using the Sharp Display Connect application to allow content sharing between mobile devices and the BIG PAD. Any training session or group meeting is enhanced when the audience can easily make a contribution from their connected devices. The Touch Viewing application also offers an easy-to-use interface and file system to collect and organise data from different collaborative projects - an intuitive and powerful overview of data, to give the best possible conditions for effective decision making .

Screen size &AMP; Distance Advice

To ensure you're choosing the right screen size for your meeting space, we like to use the 4/6/8 rule.

This rule states that the greatest distance a meeting participant should be away from the screen is no more than four, six, or eight times the height of the screen depending on what the screen is being used for.

This display is 80" diagonal. The height of screen is 39.2 inches, of 99.6cm. This table shows the distance from the screen the furthest person should be. If the meeting participant is further than the distance stated, you need to specify a bigger screen.
